I use this after a shave sometimes and once or twice as a pre-shave.
I have the lime and like the smell although a bit plasticky for me, it doesn't quite have the real lime smell.
Works well, might get the sandalwood next.

My hands down favorite is the Sandalwood. However, I was quite surprised with the coral scent. Smelling it from the bottle i was a little hesitant, a little too floral for my taste. But increasingly lately i keep returning to it time and time again. Very refreshing and clean feeling.
The Limes is just fine, but not my favorite. The scent doesn't hang around as long as i would like.
I have relatively thick facial hair and sensitive skin. I love the way my skin feels after using the balms. Not oily, but nourished. I use them often as pre shaves too.
I wish they made a Eucris scent!

Get the lime. You won't be disappointed. A little goes a long way.

I have all three of the GFT Skin Food fragrances and find them to be outstanding performers. In fact I have used the Coral the last three days. The coral sees the most use in my den but the Sandalwood use will pick up again in the fall. I have only had the Lime since the spring and I like it a lot. In my view, the GFT line of Skin Food is a great value as well since it only takes a little product to be effective. I have a medium beard.

It seems the best thing to do with skin food is to use very little. At least in my experience.
i love the Sandalwood and coral (both large bottles and sample size, only have a small sample size of the lime though I like it too
I don't always use it after a shave, as I have so many other balms, milks and AS to play with but the last couple weeks I keep the coral small sample size in my pocket and once or twice a day I'll put a little bit more on just because it's just such a wonderful soothing and moisturizing product. I believe my skin has become much healthier as a result of using it. (even if placebo effect, I still like it - and it has a wonderful scent that's not overpowering)
...and as already mentioend, a little goes a long way!!

The stuff in not cheap!! I was very close to making a GFT LIME SKIN FOOD purchase. Prior to making an order for it I received a sample of it in a shipment from shave nation.
Boy am I glad I didn't lay out the money! I am a pretty huge lime fan and this
lime is like a lime lollipop NOT. A natural lime. It also feels sticky on my face.
Not a fan!
My beard is very course and very thick in the neck, chin and cheek areas.

Hmm varied opinions on Lime ( which is the only one I have ) I use it daily along with the GFT Lime AS. I agree a little is enough, and I like the ( very short lived ) scent, I thought it quite a reasonable natural lime, being fresh rather than sweet. I use it because although my beard is light but tough my skin is oily and the skin food makes a great non greasy light moisturiser, which is quickly absorbed. A bottle is not cheap but I think I'll maybe get 6 months daily use out of 200ml bottle. I will definitely replace it, probably trying the other scents too.
